While the down through freight was passing the bridge near Tunnel Hill Wednesday morning, T. C. Johnson, a brakeman, not noticing the bridge, was knocked off and instantly killed. His brains were scattered over the boxcar on which he was standing when killed. His remains were left with his family, who live near the scene of the accident.
